Americas 1st Freedom June 2009 Magazine has called the Democrats onto the carpet.

And it isnt pretty.

Marshall Lewin in an article titled:Showing their True Colors, lays it all on the line. In his article he describes a ruthless calculation, Democrat leaders in the White House and in Congress are waiting for people to die. Thats right. They are waiting until there is some national level tragedy, the loss of life involving firearms, to introduce and then pass legislation banning guns.

But what about the 2nd amendment? And the case last year in which the Supreme Court said explicitly that we have a right as individuals to own guns?

I thought also, that’s why the various gun control laws deal with licensing and registration and trigger locks and such. Because I thought they want to make us jump through hoops to comply with various gun laws without actually banning them.

They are waiting until there is some national level tragedy, the loss of life involving firearms, to introduce and then pass legislation banning guns.

This logic has always escaped me. What on earth does a microscopic percentage of people committing an extraordinarily rare crime have anything whatever to do with the criminalization and seizure of the guns of sixty million law abiding citizens? The very scale of this fraud is utterly insane.

> “If I could have gotten 51 votes in the Senate of the United States for an outright ban, picking up every one of them Mr. and Mrs. America, turn em all in, I would have done it.”

LOL - You might get the votes, but who would enforce it? How many Federal Officers would turn in their badges rather than get shot doing something illegal and, honestly, stupid? And who would keep the armed forces, who are sworn to uphold the Constitution, from engaging the traitors, who just voted so blatantly against it, in [violent] military action?

By this time next year it will be much more difficult for the average citizen to obtain a gun—if they are not banned outright for all but police and government—inactive military will be banned as well.

Remember, the “it [US Constitution] doesn’t say what the federal government or the state government must do on your behalf”.

These are not your run-of-the-mill liberals. These are communists.

This is but the quiet before the storm.

They WILL NOT wait for the people to vote away their power in 2010—it ain’t happening that way, folks.

The difference this time is that millions more citizens own semi-auto rifles and millions more citizens have concealed carry permits now as compared to, say, 1994. Even amongst the Out Door Life crowd in the early 1990’s it was only the nut cases who had AR-15’s, whereas now they are seen as bona fide varmint rifles that have gone main stream (heck, even Remington makes one now). Throw in the Heller decision, and things get interested.

There are also democratic legislators who saw a good number of their comrades booted out of office in 1994 too, and would rather not play that game anymore.

If Obamzo the clown reads “these guns belong on foreign battle fields” off his teleprompter one more time, someone ought to ask if his secret service detail is on a foreign battle field. If disarmament is such a dandy thing then why should the federal government pester private individuals when the federal government could disarm itself with the stroke of a pen?

Since when has there been logic in politics? It has nothing to do with logic.

The government and their propaganda will promote the idea that guns kill people. And the government will make the promise of security in exchange for freedom. Benjamin Franklin saw this trick used time and time again back in his day. And he’s known for the famous quote to warn future society of it.

And then what?

pass a law?

declare martial law?

who’s gonna enforce it?

I heard this same exaclt crap from the truthers fro the last 7.5 years....

oh...there gonna round us up and put us in camps....

Bleh....you think you going to find enough people to put 85 million people anywhere 85 million people dont want to be?

They gonna carpet bomb half the country?

And who’s gonna follow those orders....

and who isnt gonna follow those orders?

sheesh....

It took our entire combined armed forces a couple years to quesll the country the size of Ohio with 5000 assholes running around with AK’s and IED’s....

WTF are they gonna do with 85 million assholes with over 200 million weapons to hand out?

They wouldnt be able to hold new york or LA without being willing to shoot the frak out of everything...and I mean EVERYTHING....

Worse case senario...they declare martial law....troops moblize....when they get to their deployment points...they are greeted with open arms and they give washington the finger....

Now what?

They tried that shit in russia.....didnt work so good...the army deployed...then gave the finger to the soviet Govt.

End of soviet Govt.

The army of for and by the people...is the army of ,for and by the people....

This aint china.

And I would remind you...when China tried to clear Tiananmen Square the first time...the army gave them the finger too...they had to clear those troops and bring in troops from the far north who hated people in the south anyways...

I’m a long-time NRA member. I’ve looked closely at how it all happened in other countries.

There will be some piss’n and moanin’ but that’s about it.

If the sheeple won’t make more than a wimper as they are shackled with debt up to their ears, lowering the standard of living for themselves and their children for decades, what the hell makes you think they would actually resist a gun ban?

A big thanks to all those “republicans” who voted for 0bama because he was “cool” and black. Thank you very much for your effort and thorough consideration.

“Thats how the Nazis gained power so fast. They used political skill and the media they controlled to take advantage of each and every national crisis and tragedy.”

Not many Germans possessed firearms in 1933. 80 million Americans do in 2009. If they come after our guns, they will have to fight millions (not 80 million, because some will cave and turn in their guns; but enough will keep their guns and fight for what America once was, and what they will hope for it to be again).

“I’ve come to believe he (Clinton) needs a certain level of violence in this country. He is willing to accept a certain level of killing to further his political agenda. The vice president, too. How else can you explain this dishonesty we get out of the administration?

Absolutely. Probably 95%+ of LEOs and military have close friends/family/neighbors who are law-abiding gun owners and they are NOT about to go knocking on doors and see those same friends/family/neighbors get hauled off to jail or in a body bag after a shootout to defend their Constitutional right to bear arms.

Ain't happenin'

Which is exactly what we would be fighting for if they came for our guns. The ONLY thing that will keep a tyrannical government in check is an armed citizenry; that’s why the leftist pukes have always wanted to ban guns.

I appluad that...but I also come from a LONG line of vets...have family currently serving...and living vets in the family...

American citizen soldiers are NOT going to follow these types of orders....

maybe a few cops would...and a few NG...big deal...

To do what you are saying they would need heavy armor...LOTS of it...air support....artillary fire support...and hundreds of thousand of trained MOTIVATED boots on the ground willing to blow the frak out of anything and everything...kill people and break shit......

“You cannot invade the mainland United States. There would be a rifle behind every blade of grass.” - Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto”

Sorry, Crim, but the Admiral was referring to the WWII generation—not the fat, dumb and happy Americans of 2009.

And you can get as ridiculous as you want about Canada, and all that. I didn’t arrive at my beliefs yesterday on a whim. I’m a gun rights activist. But I’m here to tell you that once it happens, once you hear on the radio or see on TV that the ban has been passed, there WILL BE NO UPRISING, FRiend.

Maybe, MAYBE, a skirmish here, or there, but all those gun-owners you talk about will comply.

You, if your warrior-like comments are to be believed, and would be followed-through upon, will be a very small minority of resistors. The paradigm shifts just as soon as the law is passed in the minds of most Americans. Should you provide armed resistance, you will be killed in short order.
